[Seaside] [ANN] GemStone BOF at Smalltalk Solutions 2007

[Boris Popov]

Its just a number of gems serving pages, web clients are limited only by what each gem can handle. Are you thinking of running 100,000 copies of GemStone, one per app? :)

Cheers!

Can you clarify the Max Server Processes limitation?  Is this about
how many Smalltalk clients can connect to the server, or does it also
apply to web clients?
